The Effect of Discipline on Employee Productivity in The Front Office Department of Hotel Aryaduta Manado

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of discipline on employee productivity in the Front Office Department of Hotel Aryaduta Manado. In the competitive hospitality industry, employee discipline is a key factor in achieving optimal productivity and guest satisfaction. This research uses a quantitative method with a causal associative approach, involving all 11 Front Office employees as respondents through a census technique. Data were collected using a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed with simple linear regression, correlation tests, and linearity tests using SPSS 30.0. The results show that discipline has a positive and significant effect on employee productivity, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.874 or 87.4%, a t-value of 7.899 > t-table 2.262, with significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. A correlation coefficient of 0.935 indicates a very strong relationship between discipline and productivity. These findings support the theory that high work discipline leads to better productivity.
